How well does this isolate noise/sound vs. beats solo 2? I know these aren't noise cancelling but how well do they isolate the existing sound? also, how much noise leakage is there? I heard people may hear your music sitting next to you.

My daughter had them in and volume up and I could not hear the music sitting next to her.

All I can say is that they are great! Yes you can here music if the volume is up otherwise it does well with noise cancelling. I use them to talk on the phone and people tell me that they think I am at home because they can't hear any background noise.

They are terrible at isolating noise. They leak sound.

Batman · Answer

The noise leaks a lot, everyone around you will be able to hear what your listening to even at low volume.

They don't fit tight into your ear drum, so yes, there is sound leakage and yes, if you listen to loud music, the person next to you may hear the music too.

the Solo 2s cancel out any noise you can put them on and you dont really hear anything at all until you start what you are doing. Also these are really great for talking on the phone. I have heard that others can hear the music sitting next to you but I think with any quality headphones its the same
